computer on which someone else installed prime95. I don't need the version for
myself, but it's great to distribute among people who have no clue about primes.

Maybe it would just be more simple to use B.Beesley's idea of user
education and discretion. A half powered PC is better than none. Since
the computer actually belongs to the individual, then let them decide
what to do. Perhaps Prime95 could have a message box warning that comes

I've been using the NT service version since it was released and have *zero*
